Chapter 324 – 324. The Only Way to End Revenge (2)
==============================
Kwaaaaang!!!
A loud booming sound.
Cutting through the dust and debris that obscured their vision, the two women broke into the palace.
The moment the whip and the holy sword clashed,
Furniture and ornaments inside the palace were blown in all directions and smashed.
Of course, the portrait hanging in the hallway,
Even the antiques that had been stored for hundreds of years disappeared without a trace as they were swept away by the torrent of power.
“Kuk!”
Stepping on the marble floor cracked like a spider’s web, a blonde high elf woman let out her saliva and raised her holy sword.
“Ardena!!”
The pitch-black whip flew in a straight line and aimed at the upper part of Ardena.
The power of the explosion spreads out,
All the objects that existed where the whip passed were mercilessly destroyed.
‘Now is not the time to think about damage! Only… I just focus on judging the fallen!’
Celestial Sun (天璇).
Slashes the enemy in one blow.
Ardena, who cut off the shadow of her death, kicked the floor covered with red fabric with all her might and rushed towards Corte.
Footsteps loaded with bets,
Although it was not comparable to El Cid’s axis, it was enough to cover short distances in an instant.
“Swallow it like this.”
At the approach of the high elf warrior chief, who was five steps away, the Demon King of Explosive Slaughter reached out his other hand, not holding the handle of the whip.
The entrance to the barrier of explosions.
It was the mouth of the infernal hell that swallowed the priests hiding behind the scenes.
If she was swallowed up by the shadows like this, Ardena and Valencia, along with her priests, would fall into eternal hell.
“Huh!”
The touch of shadows rushing from all directions.
Ardena, who had been floating in the air, twisted her body and swung her holy sword at her shadows.
Aaaaa!!
Celestial spirit.
She deflects the enemy’s attack and outwits her with a single shot.
A dark green halo of light drove away the black shadows while drawing a glow.
The shadows only recede with the light.
Like a shadow hiding under a structure chased by the intense sunlight, the power of the explosion disintegrated like frail baby spiders.
“Ouch… !!”
Instinctively, I raised the handle of the whip and tried to stop the brilliance that drove the shadows from attacking my body.
But the brilliance passed through the hilt of the whip,
It became a sharp blade and carved deep sword scars across Corte’s shoulder and chest.
Patter!!
Bright red paint pouring on the floor.
Fallen from an elf to a demon lord,
The blood of the corruptor who inherited the magic core of the explosion poured out.
“Cool cool!”
At the same time as she drove off the offensive, a blue-haired elf woman who was mortally wounded in the ensuing counterattack lowered her upper body as she let out a cough mixed with fresh blood.
The terrible pain that followed.
The sword skill created by the oath of the elves finally reached the demon lord.
‘As expected… !!’
Ardena was very pleased to see Corte in pain with her blood spilled.
The Demon King is an immortal being.
He never dies from any attack.
‘Favour’ bestowed by the demon god to the six demon lords
It is the power of being immortal and never being killed by the creatures created by God.
However, the attack worked for Corte.
I couldn’t understand what it was, but
Clearly, unlike the other demon kings, the demon king of explosions was not immortal.
“What so… Are you surprised, Ardena? I would have said Try killing me.”
Corté, who was drenched in blood, lifted her head and opened her mouth to Ardena, who was looking at her with trembling eyes.
She vaguely expected
Did you really not know that the attack would work?
Seeing Ardena looking at him with her eyes wide open, Corte let out a short laugh.
“I am not immortal. Maybe it’s the limit of reincarnating demons who reincarnated from elves to demons…. After killing the demon king of explosions, she obtained all of her authority and authority, but she has not been able to obtain the favor of the demon god until now.”
Corté continued his words with difficulty, pressing his hand against the scar of his sword.
While putting on a self-deprecating expression,
Since she couldn’t get the demon’s favor, she told Ardena that he would be able to kill himself.
“Then why… , Why… Did you call me Knowing for certain that I would die… !”
If you succeed in summoning the Floating Fortress in Maherit’s Palace,
If you succeed in killing all the priests,
I just wanted to hide myself.
Why did you appear in front of me?
Even by sending a shadow to announce the presence.
Do you mean to drive yourself to death as if you wished for death yourself?
“Heh heh…Hehe, ahahaha… !!”
Grotesquely twisted,
Still, a mournful laugh escaped Corte’s lips.
No one has ever heard of… It was the laughter of Corte dos Liberia, tinged with many emotions.
A cold-blooded woman devoid of all her emotions, called the ‘cold-blooded witch’ by the High Elf nobles of her council, when Corté bursts into laughter at her, Ardena sighs as if intimidated. I felt this hardening.
“Of course you will be embarrassed. Yes, of course, I can’t help but panic. The traitor who betrayed and murdered her compatriots has brazenly raised a mug and wishes her death.”
Her blue-haired elf woman stretched out her hand, which was pressing hard on her wound.
Her blood dripped down her bloody hands. Also, more bleeding started to flow as the pressure on her wound was gone.
“Why…. Why….”
“Because this is the end of revenge.”
A shadow slowly came up and wrapped itself around Corte’s slender body.
Pressing down on her wounds instead,
The shadow wrapped around her like a bandage wrapped around Corte’s wounds.
But even though her wounds were sealed, her pain was still there, so Corté raised her legs in a painful cold sweat.
“As my existence was distorted by the priests, even her life was denied. And my father… I lost my only family member in this world. My father, who tried to tell me the truth, to bring me out of the swamp of lies, was killed by the priests.”
The pain of losing a loved one in front of your eyes is an inexplicable pain.
Than to be burned alive
It is because she has to bear her painful sorrow for the rest of her life rather than having her whole body become an egg from her sharp knife.
So he swore revenge. He decided that if he had to live with the sadness of his life, he would kill all the culprits with his own hands.
“You who played around with the false fabrications of the priests without knowing the truth, and you who swear allegiance to the priests without knowing anything are disgusting! I couldn’t stand it when I saw you guys talking about justice with determination in your heart!!”
The emotions that had been suppressed so far came out with intense power like a boiling water baptism as it cut through the cracks of the collapsed dam.
When he was revered as the head priest,
The reason why he rejected all the people around him while wielding indifference and heartlessness has been revealed.
Hearing her cries mixed with her screams, Ardena lowered her head, revealing her solemn emotions. But as she slowly raised her head, she seemed to have regained her emotions and aimed her holy sword at Corte.
“… Sorry.”
While Ardena quietly apologized,
She never lowered her Holy Sword, which was aimed at her.
“But because of you… Too many compatriots died. And for your vengeance… Many of our compatriots were injured.”
The sorrow of losing a loved one,
Ardena knew her to the bone.
It wasn’t that her precious family was killed like Corté’s, but just thinking about the loss of her precious family member made her heart ache.
But she had to be judged.
Because of her, many of her compatriots died and were injured and suffered damage.
“I am the warrior chief who protects the elves…. That is why I must judge you. I understand the sadness you must have been through, but….”
Corté nodded her head at the sight of Ardena speaking out in agony as she aimed her holy sword.
“… Okay.”
Corte said so,
She lifted the whip that was hanging down on the floor.
“That would be Ardena Valencia.”
A sudden change began to occur in the whip that had been swaying in the shadows. The whip, which had been shaped like an elongated viper, had begun to shrink.
After repeated contractions,
The whip that had sentenced countless lives to death took the form of a longsword and was placed in Corte’s hand.
“… Let’s put an end to it now.”
Covered in the shadow of an explosion,
The former high priest, who had become assimilated into the shadow, launched an offensive against Ardena while wielding a sword that shimmered like a jet-black shadow.
Damn!!
A sword of shadow that cuts through the air.
Ardena, who took a step back and dodged the blast blade, swallowed her saliva.
Corte boasted a high level of swordsmanship, as well as the ability to wield a whip that was several meters long like a limb.
Chaaaaang——!! A violent recoil occurred as the shadow and life force collided.
“…….”
Like the last spark,
Ardena’s eyes were tinged with confusion as she watched Corte’s slashing attacks without stopping.
‘Why me… Did you choose….’
As she sends her question to Corte, who has chosen him as the one who will cut off her long-wandering revenge,
Ardena delivered her final blow.
Yogwang.
Kill enemies and their hordes at once.
Ardena, who struck off Corte’s sword attack head-on, carves a fatal sword mark on Corte with the intention of killing his opponent in one blow.
A blow that severed bones,
To the reincarnated demon who was the head priest… It was aimed at the priest who had been corrupted by the demon lord of the explosion.
“Ah!”
A sigh escaped Corte’s mouth.
As soon as the sigh is over,
Dark green radiance pierced the demon king of explosions.
A blow that pierced the heart. El Cid’s swordsmanship finally put an end to the demon king of explosions.
Corte, whose chest had been pierced by a sharp blade, fell forward like a puppet with a thread cut while spilling out a large amount of blood. And as she fell, she buried her face in Ardena’s shoulder.
